Zatarains a review:)

Since, i received The Zatatain's Gift Pack today, the best choice was Zatarains for Dinner:)

I let the kids decide and they picked The Jambalaya Mix.

We prepared it according to the directions on the box. We used shrimp instead of sausage. Very easy to prepare~ boil 2.5 cups of water and a tablespoon of oil. Then add the contents of the package, this is also where we added the shrimp. We covered the pan let simmer for 20 minutes.

This pic was taken after 10 minutes of cooking.

 

 

 

This pic was taken at the end of cooking.

 

 

 

Package says serves 6 but we had left overs for at least another meal:)

The kids liked it and cleared thier plates.

I give Zatarains a 10!!

More reviews of other Zatarains flavors coming later as we try them!!

Love that Zatarains too -- I like just about anything with rice, especially Cajun like this. We'll have to try it too. I think they have those instant microwavable packs too. Maybe they need some of those meal kits where you get the shrimp already in it -- like I've gotten the Contessa and some of the other ones (when you can find them). I think there even used to be one with basmati rice from India or somewhere around there. Culinary Creations maybe? Thanks for posting this!

Good review....I hope I get mine soon.

I just used some Zatarains fish coating mix, and that stuff was hotter than blazes. I will have to mix it with tons of rice or something. It nearly took the skin off the inside of my mouth. I guess it's for kids.

Nice review!

Yummy! I hope I get my package soon! I told my husband that if we get it tomorrow, that's what we are having for dinner. Otherwise I guess I have to come up with something else. We might just do a leftover night since I haven't got any meat out yet and don't really feel like thinking of another option.

I live their Dirty Rice mix, very flavorful! I would try more of their products if they were more affordable and some of the mixes didn't contain so much sodium. Thanks for the great review DN!
